Training - Back to Basics

[theeconopiss]

I wish my landlord would allow me to have a freaking good training board..

[heppsanhometraining]

Cool set up and nice work on the pull ups!

[JonGurnham]

@1amRy4n if your looking to work your back then pushups are definitely not the way to go seeing as they work your chest and triceps.......

Get a normal pull up bar that will hook onto a door frame

[TheGypolo]

holy shit balls



[TeheD]

Thats some huuuge forearms :)

[1amRy4n]

Ok so my parents wont let me put a bar on my ceiling for this stuff, so i just do push ups for back..i was just wondering if there are any other workouts i can do for my back?

[ichimurakun]

@1amRy4n Got any door frames? You can do pull ups w/ those

[PanTheGoatMan]

I've found that it's usually people working one arm pull ups of any kind, that are having the elbow problems. The best cure for that problem is to work out your triceps. The more the better. One arm pull ups really are not needed in the climbing world though. Adam Ondra and David Graham are 2 of the worlds best climbers, and neither has Ever been able to do a true one arm pull up. Adam is probably the best climber the world has ever seen! And Dave, well he defined V15 as much, if not more than

[Minotona]

@PanTheGoatMan I never have elbow pain or other joint pain, just one arm pull once a week. May be doing it too much causes the problem?

[SirMarcGermani]

@Mrclimbergawronski no situation needs to have 110 kgs on your back... we do rock climbing with max 4 kgs of materiel... so you are adding muscle weight for nothing...

[CzarThePlezer]

so0o0o0 was this to help show proper technique to prevent injury, because it didn't seem to be very helpful.

RohanWest, what grade do you climb?

[TeeDotOwe]

Where do you get one of these boards from? Thanks

[HeadBangAllDay]

Thats crazy dude. Keep up the good work.

[LeCheque90]

Hi. I start my adventure with climbing and I have a question: why do you have screwed to the wall wooden board? Sorry for my mistake, i little speak english :)

[lucasjervis17]

hey bro, did you build that fingerboard yourself? it looks store bought/also customed. lemme know dude. thanks.

[anobxyo]

shit that guy's too short

[tdawgmoneymoney7]

If your elbows hurt , you are probably getting tendinitis from too many pull ups with your palms facing out in short intense bursts, common to climbing especially bouldering. Some things that can help are good warm ups and cool downs, like 10 min a piece at lease. Also push-ups are good to help balance out the muscles, as well as pull ups palms in. Lastly more bananas in your diet helps as low potassium is a common cause of tendinitis.

[hipster4200]

@tdawgmoneymoney7 good to know, ive been feeling it in my elbows. i will defenitly do some more exercises

[TheBigdowgz]

@tdawgmoneymoney7 lol is it a tendon or a tendin?

[Eeeeeeediot]

@tdawgmoneymoney7 Fish oil helps alot for joint pain aswell

[ScottiG06]

wow. Need to get one of those boards. My chin up bar doesnt really help my forearms enough or finger strength.

[Tim9666]

not bad mate!!!

How tall are you????

[mastermation]

awesome dude im getting there slowly but surely haha

[ewokscanclimb2]

Anyone else going to ask what's up with this miniature fun-house set up? lol

[armandomaya1981]

para que las dominadas sean efectivas, se deben hacer lentamente y bloqueando todo el tiempo que se pueda, despues se vuelve a descender lentamente

[hjtvs12]

if anyone is still looking for "that climbing thing" they are called hangboards and you can just google it or go to REI

[starkeythemadclimber]

Also known as Finger Boards! depends on where ya come from :)

[LittleBeastM]

yo bro where can i get that climb thing can u give me a web or something? amazin

[francisgil]

wow.. thats amazing.. for a untrained like me :)

[ch4nb0y]

great lats

[SnakeShitSlo]

man use gloves

(my advice)

[climbtraditional]

you are watching a climber--you NEVER use gloves, as you need the tough hands for when you're on real rock!

[tdawgmoneymoney7]

@climbtraditional

belay gloves and ice climbing gloves to name a few.

[carrotclimber]

watching you do pullups makes me understand your chronic elbow problems....

[climbtraditional]

you obviously aren't a climber. Climbing is insanely tough on the joints. His form is perfect--hell one are lockoffs are putting his whole body weight on one arm. It's not natural, but necessary for the hard grades of climbing.

[carrotclimber]

obviously I'm not a climber. Let's see, I've had a torn rotator cuff (sustained on 12b), elbow tendonitis in both elbows (from bouldering too much). does that give me enough cred? Oh yes and climbing partner who is a PT and physio who has helped me get over the injury cycle. his form is not perfect. Ask Ben Moon - you don't ever lower that fast onto straight joints, you keep them slightly bent. that's why rock rings are popular, they allow the arms/elbows to rotate naturally, duh

[BewareOfOranges]

ya not extending ur arms fully on way down really helps. and rock rings rule! :-D

[MaxieNator]

nice i think im gunna make one

[OkeyPlus]

That's gotta be the lowest fingerboard I've ever seen :) Good crankin' though, nice lockoff. Sucks about the elbow and finger problems - we all want to climb hard but nobody wants chronic joint problems...

[RohanWest]

Oh crap... I acidently removed the comments. Sorry dtt2222.
